Article Excerpt:

The United States is facing its biggest showdown yet between coal advocates and environmentalists against the backdrop of a plan by the Environmental Protection Agency and Obama administration to slash standards for emission levels for coal-fired power plants across the next 15 years. Many advocates of the cheap, yet dirty, fuel source call it a “war on coal” by the government that will destroy the industry, while supporters of the modifications contest the changes are necessary for the health of people and Mother Earth.

It’s easy to understand why coal producers and coal-fired power plant operators could take a hit by the new EPA standards, but the ripple effects touch ancillary companies as well. Companies like Active Control Technology Inc. (TSX-Venture:ACT), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of network and wireless solutions for demanding environments, such as coal mines. Amongst its portfolio, the Mississauga, Canada-based company makes and sells ActiveSecure, a group of products for extending networks for security and monitoring system applications; PowerCart, a series of roll-around carts with onboard battery power and wireless capabilities used in the retail, warehousing, courier and mining industries; ActiveMesh, a wireless mesh network; and ActiveMine, a solution serving as the cornerstone for implementation of a wired or wireless data network in a mine.
